“We witnessed sows in
farrowing crates anguished in extreme confinement. These mother pigs were
unable to walk or turn around, let alone able to interact with their babies.
Our team also documented many dead piglets, one of which had been severely
cannibalized.

"We rescued two female
piglets from this horror, placing them into a wonderful newhome. We did
this so that these young females will never have to endure the suffering
and deprivation that their mothers experience.

“This Mother’s
Day weekend, we urge the New Zealand public to spare a thought for sows
imprisoned on intensive piggeries across the country. Boycott pork and
help bring an end to this cruelty”, says Ms. Sims.
